I was there. I was 24. I'm now 47.

[@Alexzw92]

Now you could probably call them 'Golden Girls'

[@helderricardocardosopereir3483]

I miss the Nintendo 64 era. Nintendo had Rare at their prime back then, the old Rare is sorely missed. They made the kind of games Nintendo doesn't make, but are still vital to a console library. Just imagine if the Wii U had an exclusive FPS series like Goldeneye 007 or Perfect Dark.

[@winlover37]

Hélder Ricardo Cardoso Pereira I would exclusively play Nintendo if they were the case.

[@lopezdad30]

You're forgetting the best one..... Conkers!!

[@JThePlante]

3D video games were so new and fresh back then!

[@willtaylor9091]

Yeah, now we only see them. Kinda wanna see more 2D platformers now.

[@madeinsound08]

Omg fr, bro why don't you just take the damn note?!

[@mblund8711]

I love watching the Conker video. Especially considering how drastically different the final product actually turned out. Which turned out to be one of the best games ever!

[@tenacious645]

Say whatever you'd like, GoldenEye still holds up well in my opinion. Of course the graphics are dated (still look good to me though) but the gameplay is still amazingly fun...Conker and Banjo...Seems like the folks at Rare really knew how to make a lasting game. When the games foundation is good, not even time can destroy a classic

[@TRJ2241987]

This was my peak interest in video gaming, I was 10 years old. It just isn't even remotely the same anymore. These days were so groundbreaking and exciting, and it was all about getting 3 friends together for some split screen action. THAT to me was the peak of interaction and connectivity, NOT today's online community.

[@jfitnesshealth]

+TRJ2241987 me too the mid 90s between the 2d to 3d transition had the best of both worlds with both sides taking inovation. I was the same age 10 going on 11 that year as well. im assuming your 30 or 29 years old now like me lol

[@tenacious645]

I don't know man. I mean I grew up with 4 player GoldenEye when it came out (I was about 8 around this time) and I even played Doom 2 back then too. 4 player split screen Halo and Halo 2 later on...All were fantastic experiences, and I wouldn't trade it for the world, but online multiplayer is extremely fun. I love playing some Battlefield nowadays and Halo 3 in its prime. I even played Call of Duty online in 2004 when it came out. I love online multiplayer. I think the problem is they go all cinematic and blockbuster with it. Quicktime events and such (as far as single player is concerned) but the main offense is them eliminating split screen from these games. If they made split screen and co-op a must in all multiplayer games, that would take care of my main gripe regarding multiplayer...I will say, to this day, GoldenEye holds up extremely well to me. I still find the graphics pleasing, and the game play is amazingly fun...Maybe its because we were kids when that type of gaming was in its day, we look back and remember fondly, and yearn for those days and what made them great out of nostalgia?? Anyways, I'm not trying to shoot down your opinion at all, because I agree, but today's multiplayer games are still fun. Again, videogames seem to lose their shimmer when you're an adult ya know?

[@canadianbandi6958]

TRJ2241987 yah that's really fun unlike the call of duty kids that constantly curse in the mic and yell I mean split screen is were it's all at!

[@MrBmastaz]

Yup us 85-88 babies experienced the golden age of video gaming. Now everything is so colluded it will never be special as it once was.

[@chivalrous_chevy1163]

Preach it brotha!

[@mrgoodname7297]

4:40 aaw! what a cute looking game, I hope nothing strange happens to it.

[@AbleAnderson]

Nintendo was loving life back then, and rightfully so. Rareware gave them a hell of a ride on the N64. And to Nintendo's credit, they made quality games back then. Its amazing how far they've fallen since then. I love all these old N64 games. The shovelware crap they put out now is a far cry from this stuff.

[@MegaZack30]

"You want an M-rated game? Here's your M-rated game." And Conker was never the same again. . . Yet, somewhere out there in the vast sea of endless universes, some of those actually got Conker's Quest, the E-rated one, and in some of said universes, the game is ironically even better. You never know.

[@Delta225]

In yet more universes, what's considered terrible game design in one universe is completely acceptable in another.

[@customsongmaker]

The concept of alternate realities is a mathematical fallacy. The idea is that if there are infinite universes, then every possibility must exist. But that's just not true, since the set of all even numbers is infinite without containing every possible number. So even if there are an infinite number of universes, that doesn't mean any of them are anything like ours.

Damn, Banjo Kazooie was my life when I was a kid. I miss these blissful days when all I could was play Nintendo, eat dinner, and go to sleep.

[@ShaunDreclin]

OMFG that Banjo Kazooie footage! I'm not insane! I've had this memory of seeing that for so many years but none of it really matched up with the actual game so I thought I was just misremembering it, but I was thinking about this E3 demo footage the whole time.

[@Hacks4AllVideos]

I'm glad you finally found it!! :)

[@joethemanager1]

Wow. The music in mumbo's skull in this video is the music grant kirkhope mentioned in guestgrumps.

[@contracts47]

Also Quake was the first FPS to ever have full 3D visuals including the enemies. Also Jumping Flash on the PSOne was the first fully 3D platforming game ever made that I am aware of. Which predates Super Mario 64 by almost a year. I could keep going but I think I have made my point.

[@fareedbakhit]

back then when games where so awesome and you'll unlock everything with your hard works there's no DLC BS and no FPS released in every month.

[@gamermapper]

Yeah but Nintendo still make it

[@DarkShadow87003]

To be honest, DLC's are fine, as long as they're an afterthought, not cut content. New doom's does it nicely IMO...

97 was a great year for the N64.It had games like Turok 1,Doom 64,Goldeneye,Duke Nukem,Starfox and many other great games.Quite possibly the best year for the N64.

[@cararen]

First game i got with my n64 was doom 64 then Rogue Squadron. 1997 was awesome

[@Balthazar2242]

Yea, this was during gaming's "awkward teenage years" where they were transitioning to 3D. It was a weird time, but with some memorable moments. The only way to like it is to think of it with nostalgia. :)

[@hk0O7]

It's interesting to see what a "cute little game" Conker's Bad Fur Day once was, in what seemed to be a pretty mature stage on it's development.

[@KeybladeScar]

It's crazy I used to look through Magazines to find out what games were coming to N64 at the time I swear I didn't know E3 existed at that time lol but man my childhood was awesome because of this system 90's era FTW :)

[@Darth_Skater]

Awesome video! Thanks for uploading this. I miss E3 in Atlanta. I was working in the World Congress Center in '98. I had the opportunity of working on the construction of Nintendo's booth at E3 and remember seeing "Zelda 64" for the very first time before the attendees even. What a great memory

[@EvolOne-ic5xv]

Back when Rare was owned by Nintendo, and they made all those adventure games in their prime.

[@nettrending4124]

I almost puked when I saw the Superman 64 Statue

[@asnierkishcowboy]

Ahaahhaaahh yes it actually looked better than everything else from the game including the box art,manual and everything.

[@maceomillions2192]

Net Trending yep lol

[@GaaraSama1983]

san francisco rush ... the jumps were just too much fun.

[@EvolOne-ic5xv]

It looks like California Speed, did they change it from Rush to California Speed for the release ?

[@StupidMarioBros1Fan]

Yes because back then they looked amazing because this was the first time that people saw 3D games, before everything was made of sprites, or cartoon pictures that didn't look realistic at all.

[@JesseRay89]

Rare really could do no wrong back then, even the original Conker beta would probably have made people's top 20 lists for the 64.

[@chinesinha]

Conkers Quest (Twelve Tales) appears it was in a much more advanced stage of development than Banjo-Kazooie. Im so glad that Rare decided to focus on Banjo-Kazooie instead, such a fantastic platformer!!! Conkers Bad Fur Day, not so much... and took more than 4 years in development...

[@FunkSwaggMusiK]

the opening theme for goledneye is different

[@JoseMartinez-uo1vg]

becouse the beta version is different from the final, and the beta is suggested to have changes from the final.

[@MrBmastaz]

i thought something was off

[@willc5007]

Ah goldeneye that was the game to play for N64. Rareware were awesome back then. I love Blast corps!

[@ForNostalgicPurposes]

MLB featuring Ken Griffey Jr. was one of the funnest games on the N64. I love that game so much.

[@carljohnson7096]

That conker game!!!!! Lol what a great console 2015 games got nothing on this

[@Kyizen]

+Carl Johnson lol you're kidding right? So many more and better games now

[@carljohnson7096]

Kyizen better games ramaster after remaster that is a good game? DLC after DLC lies after lies Lol only 1% of the games that are released now are barely whorty new games are full of bugs and shit you have to buy to complete so new games suck

[@EPCOTFan82]

Kyizen I agree with you, this gen has been one of the best! So many great games! Yeah it has its flaws but so does every gen!

[@StupidMarioBros1Fan]

3:52 Feels weird seeing the end of the KF7, like it better when it doesn't have the end showing on camera, the end makes it look less like the good old pencil gun we grew up with. XD It's funny how rare just like completely started over with Conker's game, I think only his basic model was actually kept, everything else I believe was thrown out the window when Conker's Quest turned into Conker's Bad Fur Day.

[@SturmAH]

Lol, Super man in the begining of the video. And it's funny to see how overly cute Conker started out to be compaired to what he ended up as.

[@saladspinner3200]

De games presented in that E3 edition were one by one the first in their genre and therefore set the standard for every single one that came after them. What you are looking at here, ladies and gentlemen, was history in the making.

[@kascnef]

1997 was also the year of final fantasy debuting on a console other than nintendo...

[@OneHitKill91]

Back in the good old days when there was Playstation, Nintendo, and Sega and no Xbox in sight

[@VirtualVernon]

Awesome!! I love the Detroit Techno song at the start of the video, oh and BTW the name of the 1st track from 0:00 - 0:09 is Inner City - Big Fun (1988). You'll have to listen to both songs, but Inner City - Good Life uses the same sample, and is a bit slower but another great tune!

[@fritzeyok]

what is the name of this track please?

[@HaloLvl43Legit]

Holy hell that nostalgia rush I got from seeing 007 again.

[@WB_19]

I simply adore 90's music, cars, games and TV. The only thing I hate about the 90's is the poor documentaries they make and the bland fashion. Other than I would love to live back in the 90's!

[@SeatherineJent]

Conker's Quest would have been sooo cute!

[@voteZDLR]

That one was honestly the most surprising to me. That game turned out to be so different... I guess they felt like it would be too Banjo Kazooie?

[@BuBBaChuCK90]

voteZDLR Thank god they did!

[@Lucios1995]

I read that critics thought it was too generic because of its cuteness

[@1128nesecret]

wasn't the song that played when banjo was swimming from dk 64 ?

[@SwembaGaming]

Lol, Conker's Quest. Interesting how that ended up turning out.

[@KillThad]

3:50 Immediately I notice a difference. On the pause screen, look at the gun name; It's the actual gun. in the final game, they renamed them all due to licensing issues.

[@simplyxwilliam]

Wow, even though i'm 15 years old, these games looks really awesome, even though i grew up with the snes/gamecube, i really want to play these great games. And yes i play ps3 and wii. I play COD but not as much cuz i only play it when i got nothing to do. But these games are retro. Including goldeneye 007 for the n64. That was the game that basically made the FPS games we have today.

[@RyonReview]

my god... this was the golden years of video games.

[@helderricardocardosopereir3483]

And of course, Conker's Bad Fur day, your average Nintendo cute and fluffy animal with a twisted sense of humour.

That Banjo is going to regret not getting that note...

@@Oshawottlover23 you wouldn’t be making a deal out of it if he wasn’t verified would you

[@corhellion]

Well, it was an E3 beta demo, so I would suspect that Rare wanted to show off as much of the game mechanics as possible. Plus it was probably running the debug/developer code so they could pretty much do anything anyways.

To this day, San Fransico Rush is still my favorite racing game : p

I really wish Conquer's Quest and Bad Fur Day could have been 2 separate games.. Finishing Bad Fur Day left me wanting more

[@franksmith613]

Thank god they changed the chime that occurs when picking up eggs in Banjo Kazooie. Couldn't imagine if they left the sound as it was in this video.
